Many paradoxes of quantum mechanics come from the fact that a quantum system can possess different features at the same time, such as in wave-particle duality or quantum superposition. In recent delayed-choice experiments, a quantum…
We have studied how decoherence affects a quantum walk on the line. As expected, it is highly sensitive, consisting as it does of an extremely delocalized particle. We obtain an expression for the rate at which the standard deviation falls…

Here, we point out that interactions with time delay can be described at the quantum level using a multi-time wave function $\psi(x_1,...,x_N)$, i.e., a wave function depending on one spacetime variable $x_i = (t_i,\mathbf{x}_i)$ per…
